Did You Know Tiquan Underwood Has Unusual Hair?

The good news about having a Thursday night game is that there’s not a lot of time between Sunday and Thursday. The bad news is that nothing happens in the days leading up to it that’s worth writing about. I mean, this pop piece about Tiquan Underwood is the only thing that’s even the least bit interesting. Go ahead and guess if they ask him about his hair.

Let’s get this out of the way. You know I have to ask about the hair. How long have you been growing the high-top?

If I were Tiquan, I’d answer every question about my hair with “your mother”. Especially yes or no questions.

I wouldn’t say there’s been one that was really out there, but there is one (comment) that is the most common: How do I get my helmet on? People always ask me that.

Because people, for the most part, are dumb as shit.

Oh, and the iPod question always comes up.

I have this old school playlist on my iPod. And I listen to a lot of artists who were big when I was growing up: 2Pac, (Notorious B.I.G.), Jay-Z, who actually is still doing it. I just like that ’90s era of music. Things were good then. They were speaking about real life and real things.

So this is what it has come to? Jay-Z is old school. Gotcha. I’ll just take my King of Rock cassette and be on my way.

But Tiquan sounds like a genuinely nice guy. He’s got a good attitude about his role on the team, his unfortunate dismissal by New England the day before the Super Bowl, and his aspirations. And to be honest, I think he’s got a higher ceiling than Preston Parker and was the smart choice if the Bucs could only keep one.
